MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202621027347 A) filed by Acropolis Institute Of Management Studies And Research, Indore, Madhya Pradesh, on March 9, for 'a process for recycling kitchen waste.'

Inventor(s) include Rati Trivedi Nair.

The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A process for Recycling Kitchen Waste This invention discloses a process for recycling kitchen wet waste into high-value chemicals, specifically Benzanilide and Benzoic Acid. The process addresses the limitations of traditional waste management methods, such as anaerobic digestion and biochemical conversion, by leveraging direct chemical synthesis to produce high-purity compounds. The method involves two key steps: the synthesis of Benzanilide from aniline extracted from kitchen waste, followed by the conversion of Benzanilide to Benzoic Acid through hydrolysis under acidic conditions. This approach is cost-effective, environmentally friendly, and scalable, offering significant advantages over existing methods. The invention not only reduces environmental impact by repurposing organic waste but also provides a sustainable pathway for producing valuable chemicals with diverse applications in research, pharmaceuticals, and industry."
